Defoliate further or stop?
donttelltomamastarted grow question 5 years ago
I am in 3rd week of flower. I did defoliation right before switch to flower and at the end of second week. That was 5 days ago.
I feel I want to defoliate more, to expose more lower buds to light, but I afraid it will be contra productive. What do you think?

Salut le jardinier , j'avoue j'ai du mal a comprendre cette nouvelle mode , a mon époque on fessait l'inverse , on gardais les feuilles et on attendais qu'elles tombent toute seul. J'ai lue de choses sur la défoliation et de ce que j'ai lue il faut enlever toutes les feuilles qui cachent la lumières aux branches basses alors si je me base sur ça tu peux encore enlever certaines feuilles. Bella ciao

I try not to defoliate much after the stretch is over but if you have to defol a little to get better light penetration then do a little at a time.
When i do have to defoliate during flower, i only take a few leaves at a time to reduce stress.
If you need any ither advice feel free to dm me!

yea id do a bit more but not to much. I usually try to get it all done by day 14-15 of flower just before there really start to bud. It'll help in the long run.

So my question is basically if my main stem was accidentally supercropped in week 3 of flower do I just repeat this week's nutrient schedule and act like I'm just extending everything by a week (assuming the plant only needs a week to recover)?Week 8

Problem is my GDP clone looks a little further along, and I’m struggling to see the trichomes with my cheap loupe. I’m worried I’m already in the harvest window :(Week 12

I'm still prob 3 weeks away from harvest. But my weakest point is harvesting and curing. I've always just wet trimmed and put buds on a mesh rack inside the tent. What works best for y'all? Wanna try something difrent to see if I can step my closing game up.Week 12
